You will get knocked down:

You will get knocked down.

You will fail.

You will get told you’re not good enough.

You will get people telling you you’re wrong.

You will get people who don’t believe in you.

You will get people that think you’ll never make it.

Don’t mind it.

It’s about getting up.

Again and again.

Even in the face of criticism and hate.

Even when it feels like the world is closing in around you.

Even when all you see around you is violence and apathy.

You need to get up.

You need to show up.

For yourself.

Show up for you.

Commit to you.

Commit to investing in yourself.

Why are you always doing things for other people?

Why are you always thinking about other people’s opinions of you?

Why do you care what they think?

Are they you?

Are they in your head?

Are they living your life?

No.

You are.

So do something about it.

You have an opportunity to change your life today more than any other time in history.

You have access to the world’s knowledge at your fingertips.

So go invest in yourself.

Go invest in your body.

Go invest in your mind.

Go invest in your happiness.

Get off your phone.

Stop letting technology and other people brainwash you.

Listen to your mind.

What do you really want to do?

If no one else existed on this planet, what would you choose to do?

Go do that. 

Even if you fail, do it.

In fact, you will fail.


We all do.

Reframe failure in your mind.

Think of it as progress.

Failure = progress.

So fail forward.

Take risks.

Try new things.

Get out of your comfort zone.

Push yourself through the hardship.

You will get knocked down again and again.

Just keep showing up.
